Offered in this lot is the highly attractive near complete 1956 Topps baseball set with 339 cards and (8) graded SGC examples.

In addition to the abundance of player information, this set also saw the return of fan favorite Mickey Mantle in a tremedous season that included winning the Triple Crown with a .353 batting average, 52 homeruns, and 130 RBIs.The (8) SGC examples include:1956 Topps #20 Al Kaline White Back SGC EX 51956 Topps #79 Sandy Koufax White Back SGC EX NM 61956 Topps #5 Ted Williams White Back SGC EX 51956 Topps #15 Ernie Banks White Back SGC VG EX 41956 Topps #130 Willie Mays Gray Back SGC VG EX+ 4.51956 Topps #30 Jackie Robinson White Back SGC EX 51956 Topps #31 Hank Aaron White Back SGC VG EX+ 4.51956 Topps #33 Roberto Clemente White Back SGC VG EX 4*The missing card (#135 Mickey Mantle) can be found in Lot #189*
